Pegadaian has confirmed a surge in demand for physical gold, leading to long queues for printing and collection. The company guarantees every transaction is backed 1:1 by physical gold stored securely. Gold bar prices for UBS and Galeri24 rose to Rp2.972.000 and Rp2.958.000 per gram on February 8, 2026.
Pegadaian has informed that gold deposited with the company is fully guaranteed on a 1:1 basis. Every gram of transactions in products like Tabungan Emas and Cicil Emas is backed by equivalent physical gold, stored in international-standard vaults and periodically audited by the Financial Services Authority (OJK).
The surge in physical gold demand has caused long queues for printing and collection processes. Pegadaian is optimizing production according to customer-requested denominations, though production and distribution take time. As a commitment, the company is increasing production capacity and accelerating distribution, aiming to fulfill all pending demands by the end of February 2026.
For customers needing quick funds, Pegadaian offers pawn or buyback services for Tabungan Emas via outlets or the TRING! app. The company urges customers to remain calm, invest wisely, and consider their financial profiles.
